LED Swap Diagrams (Gauges / HVAC)
Yes I have, they require a new gauge face & needles if you if you want any other color than LED red "stock is an amber / orange, and at the current price of gauge faces from another company, I just do not see it as a good solution cash wise.
If you would like the cluster red, turns out amazing

so taking the needles apart like the tC's is not an option? its cause my gf wants a white leds with a white guage face so its not amber and pink needles.....and my concern was if i swapped it to white, would i need to swap out the resistors like on the tC?....
The needles are tinted red so it would not be possible to swap them like the tC. I have a manufacturer building needles for me to replace the oem, but still waiting for them.
Did you shoot me some red? im ready to solder some more fleas to my car >=) and is there a diy for the polorized fim? Looked like I could peel off the front or the back, and i didnt wanna dork it up. Looks good without it too so not sure if ill do it now

Just be carefull, the leds are glued to the board, you have to pry up on them to get them to release and many rip a trace when doing so. Also be sure to scrape off the black center plastic.
The 3 leds that light both defrost buttons, and the mode button don't work. I checked everything but they still wont light up. I had the middle one reversed at first, after a couple of months I finally noticed it was switched and thought I found my problem. But that didn't do it. Any thoughts??

Could it be just one of the LEDs are bad causing a break in the circuit, so none of the 3 work? Hope that's it. I just finally got my lcd screen swapped for a non cracked one..its great. Now just gota get those 3 working
99.999% of the time leds are damaged in install, not really dead out of the package, in the last oh... 2000+ leds I have soldered, I have not had one that was dead out of a reel.
My guess is an led was overheated upon install, or one of the resistors going to that particular string is not making good contact. No idea really unless I can see it in person.
You are welcome to send it in. If it is simple to fix the issue, then just pay for return shipping.
